"Sadly, people living in abusive situations face a shocking reality of life. And these people are people just like you and me. This is Deborah Thomson’s story; how she came to be in an abusive situation and how she regained her strength and self-confidence to leave it behind. Abuse may be threefold. Firstly, there is the direct abuse by the perpetrator. Secondly, on another level, the suffering can be intensified when there is no remorse by the abuser. Thirdly, (an often ignored area) is the judgment of others. When friends, family or the general public find out about the abuse and judge the sufferer for either staying with the abuser or leaving.

Deborah Thomson’s childhood was an adventure. She was a traveller, accompanying her mother across Australia and the world, until she entered a relationship with someone whose abuse irrevocably changed the person that she was. Having escaped domestic violence and, inspired by her partner she have written this book to help others recognise abuse in the home and to increase their motivation to leave earlier.
